SHIPPED OUT

There is no better way to kick start entries of a new year with lists. :3

Resolutions and Goals for 2012

Learn how to manage my time better, which naturally includes learning how to relax properly. NOT DOING ANYTHING IS SOMETIMES ACCEPTABLE, SELF.

Learn a new language, preferably Japanese.

Read more. Finish 100 books, at least. MA readings DO NOT COUNT.

Work properly on one of my original projects.

Finish one of my long fanfics. Projects of choice: Nothing Was Ever Lost (Soul Campaign), Return on Investment (KHR!), Every Day Is The Yesterday of Tomorrow (P3), Coming Back (P3), Fiore di Nuvola (KHR!), The End's Not Near (Gintama), and your AU!TST things.

Go back to your practice of writing birthday fic for people you love.

Do at least 200 Gintama fanfics, long projects or otherwise.

Move mountains to reconnect with friends and make new ones.

Get published in Kritika Kultura. You're almost there, bb.

Save more on a monthly basis. Find a reasonable target for this!

Lose 30 pounds.

Exercise!

Stop forgetting to take calcium pills.

Become adept at firearms.

RP and plurk a little less, blog a little more.

Replay/play the PS3 games in your collection.

Sing. Like, honest-to-god, get back to singing again.

Be more present to the family.

Hang out with Pio and Petrik more.

Stick with the diet and avoid softdrinks and snackage.

Watch all the things sitting on your hard drives.

Things to Acquire in 2012

An external hard drive.

A carrier for Gouto.

Stuff to help reordering your room along.

A new mouse for the PC.

A music player.

New clothes!

Boots.

Lots of things, big and small. I think I'd be pleased if I manage to do even a handful of them.

I'm jumping ship on the personal blogging end and moving over to Dreamwidth.

This account will stay live, as a place for me to cross-post stuff from my actual blog whenever necessary. If you have a DW account and you're interested in adding me, you're welcome to join me over at thedovetailor.

BUT HELLO I AM ALIVE SUP EVERYONE. Life has been nuts. That is all. Wow I need to top up my icons on this account when I have the cash for it...

Now for the actual purpose of this post.

Christmas 2011 Gift Requests

I am nowhere near where a lot of you live, and not having a job put a major dent in my bank account, which pretty much prevents me from sending out gifts to some of my home girls based in other countries. BUT SINCE I LOVE YOU ALL I want to try and give you SOMETHING, so!

(Also I know this is incredibly early but I might need a lot of time to get to some of the requests. Some of you guys love making me flail. ;w;)

Tell me if you want to musebox something with me or if you want fic! I always say I'm going to write stuff or plot wonderful things with people but never get around to actually doing it. Time to hold me by the ears and make me. XDLemme in on the specifics. For museboxing, what would you like? For ficcing, which characters or scenario or whatever do you want to see? Prompts are more than welcome! Note that I'm also A-OK with writing fics set in RPverses.List down at least two requests. Four would be ideal. I might not be able to fulfill one, but I'd still like to do something for you. o3o
